Chapter 120: Milking Deer
Now the only animal that can produce milk here is the doe they brought back yesterday.
Fortunately, the two little wolf cubs would have had nothing to drink the day before.
but……
Lin Zhen: "Can you milk?"
Song Wei's expression froze slightly: "No, but try it."
Lin Zhen handed the two little wolf cubs to his younger brother who had been watching them eagerly.
"I'll do it."
Song Wei looked at him in surprise: "You can?"
Lin Zhen: "The place where I served in the army was close to the grassland in the west. The brigades there basically raised cattle and sheep. I milked the cows. Food was scarce there, but milk was still plentiful. We had it every month, but it didn't taste that good."
Song Wei stared at him up and down and couldn't help muttering: "No wonder you are so tall."
Heidan ran to his brother's room holding the two little wolf cubs. He was so happy with them that he stopped chasing after Song Wei.
The two of them came to the deer shed in the cold wind.
The sound of them walking past alerted the sika deer, and it quickly ran to the corner farthest from the door. Its big eyes stared at the door, and its ears stood up, very alert.
Song Wei walked in with a handful of leaves, followed by the tall Lin Zhen.
She held the leaf and patiently lured it for a while, and the little one came over heartlessly, hopping.
I don’t know if it’s because the little guy spent some time with Song Wei yesterday, but he’s not afraid of her.
But it seemed a little afraid of the tall Lin Zhen, and ate the leaves very carefully. As soon as it saw Lin Zhen make any move, it rushed back to its mother.
Song Wei rolled up his sleeves and said, "If it doesn't come over, let's just catch it."
Lin Zhen nodded and was about to say "I'll go" when he saw Song Wei rushing out.
Sika deer are very fast and can jump very high, so they can be very active even in a deer shed with limited space.
After a lot of chaos, he was still being chased and in a hurry he bumped into Lin Zhen and was grabbed by the neck.
This time it couldn't break free, and it kept struggling and making panic sounds.
Song Wei, with her messy hair stained with a few grasses, rushed over and hugged the deer's neck, her fair and pretty face flushed.
"You can really run!"
She said this with some gritted teeth, and this guy jumped past her several times when he was about to be caught.
Lin Zhen couldn't help laughing when he saw her current appearance, and Song Wei rolled her eyes at him.
"Come on and milk it. I'm holding it."
Under Song Wei's restraint, the sika deer couldn't run away at all.
She held some leaves and tried to get the deer to eat some, hoping that the deer would calm down soon.
A pair of beautiful eyes stared at Lin Zhen's movements.
You can see he is really skilled.
"Meh~"
The little sika deer followed its mother and ran around in panic in the deer shed for a while, and now it came over again.
Song Wei gave it the leaves in her hand.
"Although it's a bit unkind to rob you of your rations, saving lives is the most important thing right now. I'll get you a sweet potato later."
"Meh~"
"Then I'll take it as your agreement."
"You should eat something too, this is just the beginning."
There is no other source of milk at home, and the two hungry babies can't eat anything else except milk, so this sika deer has to work hard.
Fortunately, the two little wolf cubs didn’t have big appetites, so one bowl was enough for them.
Let go of the deer and it ran away.
Song Wei stood up and clapped her hands, and Lin Zhen handed her the bowl of milk.
"You have two strands of grass stuck in your hair."
Song Wei raised one hand and touched around randomly, pulling off the inserted grass leaves.
She ignored some smaller ones and Lin Zhen touched her hair.
"This buzz cut is still the best. It's hard for you women to wash your hair that long. It's hard to dry your hair in the winter and it's easy to get lice in the summer."
Song Wei: …………
Although what you said is true, why do I want to kick you so much?
Lin Zhen limped behind Song Wei, very confused. Why did she look angry? She brought the warm deer milk into the house, but stood at the door of Lin Zhen's room and did not go in.
"Let Heidan bring the little wolf cub out."
Look at how hungry the child is. Even standing at the door you can hear his little voice crying out, like a duet.
Lin Zhen: "Just go in, there's nothing in my room."
He was not being modest at all. After entering, Song Wei discovered that there was nothing in the room except a kang and a cabinet.
The quilt on the kang was folded neatly, and there was no mark on the mattress except for the one where Heidan was pressed while holding the little wolf cub.
Hygiene and the like are also very clean.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Finally they're here. They've been scaring me like this all along."
Lin Zhen: "Why are you afraid of two little wolf cubs?"
Heidan: "I'm afraid they will starve to death."
The two of them looked very hungry, and he knew best how uncomfortable it felt to be hungry.
There was nothing to feed the wolf cubs with, so they had to use a spoon.
But... Lin Zhen's family doesn't have a proper spoon.
This thing is usually prepared for families with children.
Seeing that the milk had arrived but not knowing how to feed the baby, Heidan was as anxious as an ant on hot pan.
Song Wei: "This milk needs to be heated up. I'll go to the captain's house to borrow a spoon."
After saying that, Song Wei handed the deer milk to Lin Zhen and ran out.
Lin Zhen couldn't stop the person even after he called out.
Heidan: "Brother, when will your leg get better? You seem useless if you have to ask Sister Song to do everything for you."
Lin Zhen was already feeling unwell, and his own brother stabbed him in the lungs.
"Stay away!"
He is worrying about it all the time. Isn't he anxious? His leg won't get better soon, what can he do?
After saying that, I went to heat the milk.
The aroma of milk wafted out, and the two wolf cubs howled even louder.
Heidan was so anxious that he wanted to shout along.
After the milk was heated and left to dry, when the temperature dropped a little, Song Wei came back with snow on her hair.
The breath she exhaled turned into white mist and she rushed over with a spoon.
"Here it comes, stop shouting, it makes me nervous."
Now the wolf cub was finally eating milk, and the temperature was just right.
They choked a little because they ate too quickly, and there was only one spoon, so the two wolf cubs had to scramble for the food. Their trembling pink little paws kept scratching at Song Wei's arms.
Lin Zhen took a quick look and left the room. He went outside to find a suitable piece of wood and started chopping it with a kitchen knife. He made two wooden spoons for himself.
From time to time, Heidan's threatening voice could be heard in the room, and Song Wei's voice coaxing the two little wolf cubs made him feel warm in his heart.
When can Song Zhiqing truly belong to this family? I’m so worried!
When the two little wolf cubs were full, with a circle of white milk foam on their little mouths, they fell asleep directly in Song Wei's arms.
Their round bellies rise and fall with their breathing, and their thin, soft fur trembles.
She should go back.
She wrapped the two little ones in her cotton coat and put them against her belly as she said goodbye to Lin Zhen.
Heidan also followed her happily, and from time to time he reached out and gently touched the two little cubs through their clothes.
It can be seen that he really likes it.
